I heard it (the version I heard had a fox though IIRC), but I disregarded the moral on the grounds of bullshit.
A living being doesn't knowingly throw its life away "because it's its nature". There's always a reason, regardless of whether or not you know or understand or accept it.


Yeah, I mean, why wouldn't the scorpion just wait till they got to the other side of the river and THEN sting the frog. Frog dies, scorpion scurries of, end of story. Moral? History belongs to the living, so the moral is, scorpions rule and frogs are dead.
